PAUL STANLEY: GENE SIMMONS 'Has Earned The Right To Do Whatever He Wants To'

January 18, 2006

Launch Radio Networks reports: Gene Simmons is using the current KISS hiatus to launch another reality show. Simmons, who starred in VH1's "Gene Simmons' Rock School" last summer, now has his sights set on "Gene Simmons' Family Jewels", which will focus on his own family, including longtime girlfriend Shannon Tweed and their two teenaged children. The show is slated to air on the A&E channel sometime this year.

"Rock School" featured Simmons creating a rock band from a class of classically trained students at an exclusive British boarding school. KISS co-founder Paul Stanley told Launch that Simmons is free to do whatever he likes, as long as it doesn't negatively impact KISS. "I think Gene has earned the right to do whatever he wants to," he said. "Gene certainly in all venues has the freedom and the right to do whatever he chooses, as long as it doesn't directly impact on anything that he's only part of. He's come away unscathed 'til now."

The latest KISS release is a concert DVD called "Rock The Nation Live!", which came out in December.
